Chapter 27 Heat Resistance
The feeling of hunger and thirst begins to creep in the genes.
He was desperate to eat the fist-sized piece of meat.
"Blood relatives, eat."
Without the slightest hesitation, he picked up the piece of meat that was still stained with gastric juice.
Holding it in both hands, I can't wait to stuff it into my mouth.
The white flesh is very hard.
Chen Jing gnawed for a long time before biting a small piece of meat from the piece of meat.
He swallowed the piece directly.
When the snow-white flesh enters the stomach, a great sense of satisfaction envelops the whole body from the inside out.
Compared to other substances that entered Chen Jing's stomach pouch, the digestion rate of this piece of meat was unusually slow.
After Chen Jing gnawed the second piece of meat from above, the first piece of meat only digested the outermost layer.
But with such a layer of meat slices, the evolutionary essence in Chen Jing's body rose rapidly as if it had been opened!
[Evolutionary Mass: 3246.] 】
[Evolutionary Quality: 5122.] 】
[Evolutionary Quality: 7450.] 】
As the meat was digested, Chen Jing's body began to get agitated.
He's hungry to evolve.
Let's evolve.
The evolutionary equation contained in the meat cube surprised Chen Jing.
[Evolutionary equation: cell heat resistance, muscle cell length, muscle cell endurance, number of muscle cells.] 】
Cell-resistant cells, if you think about it, are more than the heat-resistant cells you originally needed.
After all, heat-resistant cells are just one of many cells.
And cell heat resistance can be said to target all cells in the body.
There is a downside to this, though.
Chen Jing's consumption will be greatly increased, just like regenerating cells.
Before he officially started to evolve, Chen Jing suddenly thought, "I think I want another chromosome." ”
The mysterious mechanism of evolutionary nature is activated.
The substances stored in Chen Jing's body are rapidly depleted.
Brand new chromosomes are being generated.
The amount of evolutionary mass required for cells to withstand heat was beyond Chen Jing's expectations.
The original more than 10,000 copies of the evolutionary quality are gone!
Although the body is still digesting those white pieces of meat, it is now in a state of breaking even.
And a single piece of matter the size of a fist contains a terrifying amount of energy.
This piece of meat is fiercer than two monitor lizards!
This ensures that Chen Jing can have enough nutrients to evolve at present.
Halfway through evolution.
Working proteins begin to drag the newly generated gene fragments together, and the evolutionary plasma fuses and fixes them in a unique pattern.
During this period, Chen Jing's body temperature began to rise gradually.
Just like when muscles and bones evolve, muscles and bones will break. When it comes to evolving and regenerating cells, the heart-rending pain is also the burden of evolution.
This time, it's a rise in body temperature.
A large number of cells are on the verge of dying in this process, and the regenerated cell chromosomes have no role in this stage.
The proteins it produces are likewise inactive at high temperatures.
Dry.
Chen Jing urgently needs to cool down.
Or rather, the new chromosome needs to start working.
[Health Check Warning! The temperature of the life form is abnormal! Body temperature 46 degrees Celsius! 】
[Health Check Warning! The temperature of the life form is abnormal! Body temperature 54 degrees Celsius! 】
[Health Check Warning! The temperature of the life form is abnormal! The body temperature is 67 degrees Celsius! 】
When the body temperature reaches more than 45 degrees Celsius, the system's display screen automatically jumps out, and the original light blue screen turns red, and with the sharp increase in body temperature, the red color gradually deepens!
Chen Jing had stopped thinking.
The high temperature in the body has caused all the systems in the body to stop working.
However, the body was well protected by evolutionary nature, and Chen Jing did not die because of evolution.
This kind of protection is equally depleting on evolutionary qualities.
The first heat-tolerant chromosomes to start working are in the brain.
Since the temperature has reached a threshold, these heat-resistant chromosomes immediately start working.
Large quantities of protein rush out of the cells in a matter of moments, and a thin film soon covers the entire brain.
After the heat-resistant chromosomes in the brain are produced and start working, the heat-resistant chromosomes in the rest of the world gradually start working.
Membranes are generated on the surface of cells one after another, and when these membranes encapsulate the cells, the proteins produced by the chromosomes of the regenerated cells survive, and the cells in Chen Jing's body that have stopped their activities due to high temperature begin to be replaced.
Large swaths of dead skin are peeled off the surface of the body.
The dead cells are quickly broken down and taken away by all kinds of new cells as nutrients.
Before the brain died, Chen Jing was able to recover gradually.
[Health Check Warning! The temperature of the life form is abnormal! Body temperature 89 degrees Celsius! 】
[Mechanical biochemistry: The biological structure of the steam engine, the heat resistance of the cell has been completed!] 】
Chen Jing opened his mouth, and a scorching stream of air erupted from his mouth.
But due to the existence of that film, this temperature is nothing to him now.
He recovered.
Evolution ends.
The temperature of the body begins to drop gradually.
It wasn't until the temperature reached below 45 degrees Celsius that the outer membrane in Chen Jing's body began to decompose.
But it's not completely decomposed.
The outermost layer of the film has disappeared, while the innermost layer of the film has begun to merge with the cell membrane.
This is another protein produced by thermostable chromosomes that make simple repairs to the surface of the cell membrane, allowing the proteins that make up the membrane to merge with the cell membrane.
This is the most basic heat-resistant structure.
With this layer of film, as long as the body temperature does not exceed 60 degrees Celsius, it will not activate the subsequent heat-resistant process.
Chen Jing has a lot of gadgets in his body to check his body temperature.
The cell is resistant to high temperatures, and he has done it.
The pieces of meat in the body have been digested, but so much evolutionary essence is almost consumed!
The main reason is that most of the evolutionary essence is used to protect Chen Jing's body.
This part of the consumption is very necessary.
The salamander, who had already returned to the hot spring, saw that Chen Jing was "alive" and climbed forward again.
"Blood relatives?"
"Ate you?"
Chen Jing suddenly had a black line at his end.
Isn't this thing going to say anything else?
"Blood relatives?"
"And one more."
As he spoke, the salamander opened its mouth again, ready to spit out something from its stomach again.
But Chen Jing stepped forward and closed his big mouth.
"I'm not that greedy."
The most important evolutionary equation has been reached, and no more eating can only obtain evolutionary quality.
Judging from the state of the salamander, he became a blood relative in the same way as a fish, eating a part of the body of a powerful living form.
The fish ate a little bit of the starfish, and the salamander ate the piece of snow-white flesh.
And because digestion is too slow, salamanders are only the kind that have just stepped into the ranks of blood relatives.
His small digestion and sheer size also left him uncontrolled by the evolutionary equation.
Chen Jing closed the salamander's big mouth and refused the offer.
He didn't know what the salamander blood relative had in mind when he gave the piece of flesh to himself.
But the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring.
Chen Jing felt that he had no means to repay, so he still didn't eat other people's reserve grain.
After all, such a huge salamander, without that piece of meat, he might not be able to obtain enough energy for his daily activities.
When the time comes, he may leave the underground hot springs.
But none of this should happen because of yourself.
A blood relative who has good intentions towards himself is very rare, isn't it?
"What an amazing encounter." Chen Jing couldn't help but sigh.
The salamander didn't know what Chen Jing was thinking, but his mouth was closed, thinking that this blood relative was full.
Same with him.
Since eating these cuts of meat, he has had a much less need for food.
